Company Review

Trend Analysis

SONY INTERACTIVE ENTERTAINMENT EUROPE LIMITED demonstrates a strong trend of timely payments, with an impressive average payment time of 28 days. A significant 84% of invoices are consistently settled within 30 days, indicating a clear trajectory towards prompt financial obligations.

Volatility Analysis

While generally reliable, there is a minor degree of payment volatility, as 16% of invoices extend beyond 30 days. The 8% of payments exceeding 60 days introduces a predictable, albeit small, risk factor for significantly delayed cash flow on a minority of transactions.

Summary Analysis

SONY INTERACTIVE ENTERTAINMENT EUROPE LIMITED is generally a reliable payer, making them a favorable partner for suppliers prioritizing consistent cash flow. Suppliers should account for the small possibility (8%) of payments extending over 60 days, potentially through robust payment terms or contingency planning for those specific invoices.

Payment Terms

Standard payment terms

Sony Interactive Entertainment Europe Limited’s (SIEEL) standard terms include the Sony Interactive Entertainment Europe Purchase Order Terms and Conditions of Purchase (“Terms”) used for purchasing goods and services. Payment terms are typically 30 days from receipt of invoice. To view the Sony Interactive Entertainment Terms please refer to https://www.playstation.com/po-terms-and-conditions/ or request a copy by emailing Accounts_Payable_uk@scee.net. The data provided by SIEEL includes Sony intra-company payments which are generally on longer payment terms. SIEEL has limitations within its billing and accounts system which do not allow the contract type to be recorded. This means that the system is unable to distinguish between qualifying and non-qualifying contracts and as such some of our data may include non-qualifying contracts.

Were there any changes to the standard payment terms in the reporting period?
